Bright highs ; Disitortion level low at maximum volume ; Good looks ; Good soundstage

Overwhelming Bass ; Muddy mids

The torch-shaped satellites and the wooden subwoofer formed a stylish set of speaker. This 2.1 speaker sounded bright without much distortion even at maximum volume, and the overall sound is quite like-able at first. However, discerned listeners would...

Judging from its sound quality alone, it isn't hard to find faults with the Altec Lansing Octane 7 (VS 4621). But for £59 inc VAT the Altec Lansing Octane 7 has enough power to let you feel the bass and bright highs which made it just a good pair of PC...

Interesting design, powerful bass, bright highs, well-priced

Bass is boomy and overpowering, muffled mids, no headphone jack, speakers cannot be wall mounted, no wired or wireless remote controller, subwoofer is not protected

Good sound quality construction

speakers are not enclosed/protected but i saw the pictures so i got what i paid for ; the left speaker should plug into the right speaker and the right speaker into the subwoofer. but instead you have to run both speakers to the subwoofer. dont know...

Love the speaker design, fits great on my desk without taking up too much space ; sub is pretty good without taking up much space

First couple days I had them they would produce some static when noting was playing, and it was enough to need to turn down the volume. I later played with a bunch of things: reseating every connection, plugging into a different outlet. The last thing...

Solid clarity in medium to high ranges ; Fair bass levels for the price ; Good bang for your buck

The bass has trouble reaching the ultra-low ranges, so you won't ever get that deep boom that takes movies and music to the next level... BUT, it gets the job done ; I expected better from these speakers, especially since they are Altec Lansing. They...

Great Price, Simple setup (shouldn't be an issue for anyone), Great sound for the price and great for gaming

Package was mildly beat up (not sure if that was UPS's fault) but the speakers were somewhat 'loose' in the case. This was mildly concerning when I first opened the box but the set worked fine

great bass, i can feel the walls outside my house trumbling ; it has aux ; treble adjust and bass adjust ; design is sexy

none

These speakers are pretty good. Not as good as the similar model form Altec Lansing from several years ago, but nonetheless passable. Crisp high and warm mid

The bass saturates at relatively low levels. This is surprising considering my experience with other AL speakers. Also, I personally don't like that the low and mid cones are uncovered. For the mids, this is not such a problem because they are down...

Remarkably better than a 2.0 system. I am not a sound expert but i can tell the difference. the sub-woofer is a little loud, but you can tune down the bass if needed

since the mid-range is down-firing, if you are too far above the base of the speakers things start to sound funny. this should not be a problem though as most people keep their speakers around where their monitor is
